Comments on: Irish Host Redhawks in Martin’s Return https://dev.ndnation.com/irish-host-redhawks-in-martins-return/ The Independent Voice of Notre Dame Athletics Fri, 11 May 2018 16:44:27 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Elkhart Joe https://dev.ndnation.com/irish-host-redhawks-in-martins-return/#comment-21498 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 14:42:42 +0000 https://dev.ndnation.com/?p=6157#comment-21498 I can’t see Miami doing much of anything against the Irish so I think your score for them is very optimistic. I will give them one TD. ND 42, Miami 7.

We could lose to this team? Really? Have another, friend.
Today we are going to match last year’s win total, and it ain’t even October. Southern Cal is not invincible. D hasn’t looked this fundamentally sound in many years. Can I go out on a limb and humbly suggest that we just watch the game and enjoy?
The last time I made the mistake of “waiting for the other shoe to drop”, Manti was playing. ND went undefeated (minus the obvious) and I spent all my time being critical and no time enjoying the ride.
I’m not making that mistake again. We’ll be fine today. So pour yourself a lovely beverage of your choosing, stop nitpicking, and enjoy.
ND by at least 3 TD’s. I agree with above that BK will not run it up against his buddy. Play all the seniors.

the timing of this game seems rather odd. if you are going to play second tier teams use it to your advantage. I agree with comments above. As long as Kelly is coach no game is safe and special teams will always be worse than the opponent

Agree, lately the ND schedules aren’t living up to those old ND standards. 2018 we pick up Michigan and FSU. 2019 is about the toughest road schedule you will see. Can’t wait, go Irish!

The Cincinnati Zoo is spectacular as well!!

ND 48-10.

The attendance for Saturday’s game will be higher than the total attendance for Miami’s first four games combined…not going to happen.

Teams that were down for many years like the Miami Hurricanes and Purdue in the distant past. And we all know the story about the Naval Academy. Of course losing to Tulsa was not part of the plan but ND had good intentions. Sometimes it’s just to help out an old friend like Chuck Martin.

GO IRISH!! BEAT the RedHawks

JVan,

I think they will move the ball in the first half as our D will be looking ahead to the
next few weeks (It happens every time after a big win).

I hope you’re right!!!

We play 5 games like this (Temple, BC, Wake Forest & Navy also). NC isn’t much either. Pretty much the same as every year, 7 home, 5 away. It will get interesting in 2019 and forward. Until then, not much elite competition. Some good games but not the heavyweights.
